I bet you could make little to no money in 20 hours a week.

Good luck winning that one in court.

If you kept the property, and accumulated the CF/yr, it would take you 25 years to get that same equity that's sitting, frozen in your property.Also, if you cashed out and used that same equity as a DP on different RE, at 20% DP, that equity would buy you $2M in PV, not just $700k,...and, I'd be willing to bet, you could find new RE that would have a yearly CF well over $20k/year.On top of that (remembering my initial statement above), any appreciation applied would be applied to $2M, not just $700k. 

May this year bring you strategic wins and profitable ventures in an evolving market landscape.

My bet is you do not get sued.  

(A lot of states, they can easily pull emergency assistance, and the court case get automatically dismissed) If they are pro at this, you have no way to win without a super experienced PM and legal team.

If you're looking for the cheapest route, conventional may be a better bet.

It also gave me a month to order furniture and think through the decorations and line up contractors so all in all, it was a win to keep the rentals. 

I bet that you can pay off this debt in 1 year or much less.

That looks like a win for a first flip these days.
